Help! Long-term foster home needed - 2 cats
Could you offer two very sweet, characterful adult cats a loving long term home? Our situation - I relocated to Zambia about 6 weeks ago and had founded a lovely foster home where the cats seem very happy and settled. Unfortunately the lady who has them has is elderly and recently became quite ill so can no longer take care of them... I am currently in Zambia until December, but it is quite likely to be extended for another 2 years after that (work permit permitting). So I need to find them a long term home where they will be loved and looked after, and hope not to have to disrupt them again. My priority is making sure they are settled and happy. Here is some info about the cats... Matilda: very petite, pretty tabby girl. Quite self-contained but likes to curl up on a lap or the end of the bed. Loves to go outside and hunt for āpresentsā. No health issues. Charlie: tabby and white boy, a real character and also quite affectionate. Favourite things are eating and sleeping. Charlie does have diabetes which is helped with daily tablets (in his food - he doesn't notice them!) because we cannot give him insulin injections. The diabetes means that he eats and drinks a lot. At the moment he still has a good quality of life and seems quite happy in himself. I need to be honest about this as I appreciate that itās not an easy thing for a new person to take on ā however, as with his current home, I would like to remain in regular contact to see how they are both doing, and help make any decisions. I got them from a rescue home about 7 years ago when they were both full grown around 2 years old. They came as mother & son - I donāt know if this is true or not but theyāve always been together! Both of them are very social and like to be around people. They cannot be homed with dogs as a previous experiment was disastrous. They would suit somewhere they are the only āchildrenā, ideally with a garden/fields for entertainment! Let me know if you would like to know anything else and if you get in touch please do send me some information about yourselves and your home etc. It is really difficult to find a new home for them from overseas so please let me know if you can help!
